The city of Brighton has a secret past. With only a small placard dedicated to the memory of the sublime Regent Cinema outside its present day substitute - the significantly less architecturally valuable North Street Boots store - it would be easy to let the multitudinous Brightonian cinemas of old drift into complete obscurity.

One person who is not willing to let this happen is Julian Clapp. With his richly informative and thoughtfully planned out tour, encompassing film houses stretching back more than a century, Julian provides a hugely intriguing experience for cinema fanatics and novices to the subject alike. Immaculately timed so that ninety minutes whistles by, this illuminating tour is one not to be missed.
